Preparation
This record describes roasted breast meat without skin. Cooking can concentrate nutrients per 100 g as water leaves, but raw and cooked database entries are not an experiment on the same piece of meat. Yield varies with method and doneness. Added oil, butter, breading and sauce need to be included when your preparation differs from the selected record.
Logging this food
Use the cooked edible weight for this entry: 100 g is 165 kcal and 6 oz cooked (about 170 g) is about 281 kcal. The listed half-breast portion is a database serving, not the weight of every breast. If your package or recipe gives a raw weight, use a raw record or calculate the whole recipe before dividing it into cooked servings.
Swaps and alternatives

These records describe different foods, and their fat and protein contents differ. Check the edible serving and any added ingredients before comparing the calories in a complete meal.
